I don’t think I’d call it shrill but it’s what I would describe as “thin” where in the songs up until around 2017 (for the most part) showed more depth in her voice. 

‘Thin’ is also a good word for it. ‘Rich,’ ‘full,’ it is not.

does anyone else think fishtail sounds like a demo, especially during the second verse.

 

the more i adjust to this record the more i think the last 3 songs just shouldn't be there.. they're bonus tracks in my mind :true:

 

or maybe they should have been european exlusives like flipside and is this happiness (is that what they were?)

i’m not sure about that - I think the last three add a lightness that encourages the listener to not take life so seriously at the end of the day. 
 

it’s important to just get stupid and experiment idk

I think her voice is much fuller now than what it used to be- especially the higher notes.

 

Her voice was thin in BTD/UV. Currently he mix voice is so beautiful and angelic, well rounded . Much more clarity and resonance  in her higher register(compare WD vs PT). Her lower register isn't showcased as much as before.(yes it is present on OB but I wish it was highlighted more). I think it's mostly got to do with the compositions(maybe Rick had a more traditional structure with more lower notes)?

I can agree her overall voice sounds more resonant when higher but she doesn’t really push it at all and the voice being thinner(I’m surprised people think her gods and monsters tone isn’t thick) is due to heavy falsetto mix.
